a tidal river
Today's temperature provided an early glimpse of spring.
After enjoying a warm walk near home I headed to the coast, thinking the warmth would continue. It was 58 degrees when I left home. The thermometer in my car held that temperature until I turned toward the coast from route 1. By the time I reached the ocean the air temperature was 44 degrees, driven down by a cold ocean wind. I walked by the ocean for a bit before heading north on Plum Island to walk by the tidal Merrimack River.
